TECHNICAL FIELD

The present invention relates to novel semisynthetic macrolides havingantibacterial activity and useful in the treatment and prevention ofbacterial infections. More particularly, the invention relates to 6-11bicyclic ketolide derivatives, compositions containing such compoundsand methods for using the same, as well as processes for making suchcompounds.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Macrolide antibiotics play a therapeutically important role,particularly with the emergence of new pathogens. Structural differencesare related to the size of the lactone ring and to the number and nature(neutral or basic) of the sugars. Macrolides are classified according tothe size of the lactone ring (12, 14, 15 or 16 atoms). The macrolideantibiotic family (14-, 15- and 16-membered ring derivatives) shows awide range of characteristics (antibacterial spectrum, side-effects andbioavailability). Among the commonly used macrolides are erythromycin,clarithromycin, and azithromycin. Macrolides possessing a 3-oxo moietyin place of the 3-cladinose sugar are known as ketolides and have shownenhanced activity towards gram-negative bacteria and macrolide resistantgram-positive bacteria. The search for macrolide compounds which areactive against mLS_(B)-resistant strains(mLS_(B)=Macrolides-Lincosamides-type B Streptogramines) has become amajor goal, together with retaining the overall profile of themacrolides in terms of stability, tolerance and pharmacokinetics.

Antibacterial Activity

Susceptibility tests can be used to quantitatively measure the in vitroactivity of an antimicrobial agent against a given bacterial isolate.Compounds were tested for in vitro antibacterial activity by amicro-dilution method. Minimal Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) wasdetermined in 96 well microtiter plates utilizing the appropriateMueller Hinton Broth medium (CAMHB) for the observed bacterial isolates.Antimicrobial agents were serially diluted (2-fold) in DMSO to produce aconcentration range from about 64 μg/ml to about 0.03 μg/ml. The dilutedcompounds (2 μl/well) were then transferred into sterile, uninoculatedCAMHB (0.2 mL) by use of a 96 fixed tip-pipetting station. The inoculumfor each bacterial strain was standardized to 5×10⁵ CFU/mL by opticalcomparison to a 0.5 McFarland turbidity standard. The plates wereinoculated with 10 μl/well of adjusted bacterial inoculum. The 96 wellplates were covered and incubated at 35+/−2° C. for 24 hours in ambientair environment. Following incubation, plate wells were visuallyexamined by Optical Density measurement for the presence of growth(turbidity). The lowest concentration of an antimicrobial agent at whichno visible growth occurs was defined as the MIC. The compounds of theinvention generally demonstrated an MIC in the range from about 64 μg/mlto about 0.03 μg/ml.

All in vitro testing follows the guidelines described in the ApprovedStandards M7-A4 protocol, published by the National Committee forClinical Laboratory Standards (NCCLS).

Pharmaceutical Compositions.

The pharmaceutical compositions of the present invention comprise atherapeutically effective amount of a compound of the present inventionformulated together with one or more pharmaceutically acceptablecarriers or excipients.

As used herein, the term “pharmaceutically acceptable carrier orexcipient” means a non-toxic, inert solid, semi-solid or liquid filler,diluent, encapsulating material or formulation auxiliary of any type.Some examples of materials which can serve as pharmaceuticallyacceptable carriers are sugars such as lactose, glucose and sucrose;starches such as corn starch and potato starch; cellulose and itsderivatives such as sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, ethyl cellulose andcellulose acetate; powdered tragacanth; malt; gelatin; talc; excipientssuch as cocoa butter and suppository waxes; oils such as peanut oil,cottonseed oil, safflower oil, sesame oil, olive oil, corn oil andsoybean oil; glycols such as propylene glycol; esters such as ethyloleate and ethyl laurate; agar; buffering agents such as magnesiumhydroxide and aluminun hydroxide; alginic acid; pyrogen-free water;isotonic saline; Ringer's solution; ethyl alcohol, and phosphate buffersolutions, as well as other non-toxic compatible lubricants such assodium lauryl sulfate and magnesium stearate, as well as coloringagents, releasing agents, coating agents, sweetening, flavoring andperfuming agents, preservatives and antioxidants can also be present inthe composition, according to the judgment of the formulator.

The pharmaceutical compositions of this invention may be administeredorally, parenterally, by inhalation spray, topically, rectally, nasally,buccally, vaginally or via an implanted reservoir, preferably by oraladministration or administration by injection. The pharmaceuticalcompositions of this invention may contain any conventional non-toxicpharmaceutically-acceptable carriers, adjuvants or vehicles. In somecases, the pH of the formulation may be adjusted with pharmaceuticallyacceptable acids, bases or buffers to enhance the stability of theformulated compound or its delivery form. The term parenteral as usedherein includes subcutaneous, intracutaneous, intravenous,intramuscular, intraarticular, intraarterial, intrasynovial,intrasternal, intrathecal, intralesional and intracranial injection orinfusion techniques.

Liquid dosage forms for oral administration include pharmaceuticallyacceptable emulsions, microemulsions, solutions, suspensions, syrups andelixirs. In addition to the active compounds, the liquid dosage formsmay contain inert diluents commonly used in the art such as, forexample, water or other solvents, solubilizing agents and emulsifierssuch as ethyl alcohol, isopropyl alcohol, ethyl carbonate, ethylacetate, benzyl alcohol, benzyl benzoate, propylene glycol, 1,3-butyleneglycol, dimethylformamide, oils (in particular, cottonseed, groundnut,corn, germ, olive, castor, and sesame oils), glycerol,tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol, polyethylene glycols and fatty acid estersof sorbitan, and mixtures thereof. Besides inert diluents, the oralcompositions can also include adjuvants such as wetting agents,emulsifying and suspending agents, sweetening, flavoring, and perfumingagents.

Injectable preparations, for example, sterile injectable aqueous oroleaginous suspensions, may be formulated according to the known artusing suitable dispersing or wetting agents and suspending agents. Thesterile injectable preparation may also be a sterile injectablesolution, suspension or emulsion in a nontoxic parenterally acceptablediluent or solvent, for example, as a solution in 1,3-butanediol. Amongthe acceptable vehicles and solvents that may be employed are water,Ringer's solution, U.S.P. and isotonic sodium chloride solution. Inaddition, sterile, fixed oils are conventionally employed as a solventor suspending medium. For this purpose any bland fixed oil can beemployed including synthetic mono- or diglycerides. In addition, fattyacids such as oleic acid are used in the preparation of injectables.

The injectable formulations can be sterilized, for example, byfiltration through a bacterial-retaining filter, or by incorporatingsterilizing agents in the form of sterile solid compositions which canbe dissolved or dispersed in sterile water or other sterile injectablemedium prior to use.

In order to prolong the effect of a drug, it is often desirable to slowthe absorption of the drug from subcutaneous or intramuscular injection.This may be accomplished by the use of a liquid suspension ofcrystalline or amorphous material with poor water solubility. The rateof absorption of the drug then depends upon its rate of dissolution,which, in turn, may depend upon crystal size and crystalline form.Alternatively, delayed absorption of a parenterally administered drugform is accomplished by dissolving or suspending the drug in an oilvehicle. Injectable depot forms are made by forming microencapsulematrices of the drug in biodegradable polymers such aspolylactide-polyglycolide. Depending upon the ratio of drug to polymerand the nature of the particular polymer employed, the rate of drugrelease can be controlled. Examples of other biodegradable polymersinclude poly(orthoesters) and poly(anhydrides). Depot injectableformulations are also prepared by entrapping the drug in liposomes ormicroemulsions that are compatible with body tissues.

Compositions for rectal or vaginal administration are preferablysuppositories which can be prepared by mixing the compounds of thisinvention with suitable non-irritating excipients or carriers such ascocoa butter, polyethylene glycol or a suppository wax which are solidat ambient temperature but liquid at body temperature and therefore meltin the rectum or vaginal cavity and release the active compound.

Solid dosage forms for oral administration include capsules, tablets,pills, powders, and granules. In such solid dosage forms, the activecompound is mixed with at least one inert, pharmaceutically acceptableexcipient or carrier such as sodium citrate or dicalcium phosphateand/or: a) fillers or extenders such as starches, lactose, sucrose,glucose, mannitol, and silicic acid, b) binders such as, for example,carboxymethylcellulose, alginates, gelatin, polyvinylpyrrolidinone,sucrose, and acacia, c) humectants such as glycerol, d) disintegratingagents such as agar-agar, calcium carbonate, potato or tapioca starch,alginic acid, certain silicates, and sodium carbonate, e) solutionretarding agents such as paraffin, f) absorption accelerators such asquaternary ammonium compounds, g) wetting agents such as, for example,cetyl alcohol and glycerol monostearate, h) absorbents such as kaolinand bentonite clay, and i) lubricants such as talc, calcium stearate,magnesium stearate, solid polyethylene glycols, sodium lauryl sulfate,and mixtures thereof. In the case of capsules, tablets and pills, thedosage form may also comprise buffering agents.

Solid compositions of a similar type may also be employed as fillers insoft and hard-filled gelatin capsules using such excipients as lactoseor milk sugar as well as high molecular weight polyethylene glycols andthe like.

The solid dosage forms of tablets, dragees, capsules, pills, andgranules can be prepared with coatings and shells such as entericcoatings and other coatings well known in the pharmaceutical formulatingart. they may optionally contain opacifying agents and can also be of acomposition that they release the active ingredient(s) only, orpreferentially, in a certain part of the intestinal tract, optionally,in a delayed manner. Examples of embedding compositions that can be usedinclude polymeric substances and waxes.

Dosage forms for topical or transdermal administration of a compound ofthis invention include ointments, pastes, creams, lotions, gels,powders, solutions, sprays, inhalants or patches. The active componentis admixed under sterile conditions with a pharmaceutically acceptablecarrier and any needed preservatives or buffers as may be required.Ophthalmic formulation, ear drops, eye ointments, powders and solutionsare also contemplated as being within the scope of this invention.

The ointments, pastes, creams and gels may contain, in addition to anactive compound of this invention, excipients such as animal andvegetable fats, oils, waxes, paraffins, starch, tragacanth, cellulosederivatives, polyethylene glycols, silicones, bentonites, silicic acid,talc and zinc oxide, or mixtures thereof.

Powders and sprays can contain, in addition to the compounds of thisinvention, excipients such as lactose, talc, silicic acid, aluminumhydroxide, calcium silicates and polyamide powder, or mixtures of thesesubstances. Sprays can additionally contain customary propellants suchas chlorofluorohydrocarbons.

Transdermal patches have the added advantage of providing controlleddelivery of a compound to the body. Such dosage forms can be made bydissolving or dispensing the compound in the proper medium. Absorptionenhancers can also be used to increase the flux of the compound acrossthe skin. The rate can be controlled by either providing a ratecontrolling membrane or by dispersing the compound in a polymer matrixor gel.

According to the methods of treatment of the present invention,bacterial infections are treated or prevented in a patient such as ahuman or other animals by administering to the patient a therapeuticallyeffective amount of a compound of the invention, in such amounts and forsuch time as is necessary to achieve the desired result.

By a “therapeutically effective amount” of a compound of the inventionis meant a sufficient amount of the compound to treat bacterialinfections, at a reasonable benefit/risk ratio applicable to any medicaltreatment. It will be understood, however, that the total daily usage ofthe compounds and compositions of the present invention will be decidedby the attending physician within the scope of sound medical judgment.The specific therapeutically effective dose level for any particularpatient will depend upon a variety of factors including the disorderbeing treated and the severity of the disorder; the activity of thespecific compound employed; the specific composition employed; the age,body weight, general health, sex and diet of the patient; the time ofadministration, route of administration, and rate of excretion of thespecific compound employed; the duration of the treatment; drugs used incombination or contemporaneously with the specific compound employed;and like factors well known in the medical arts.

The total daily dose of the compounds of this invention administered toa human or other animal in single or in divided doses can be in amounts,for example, from 0.01 to 50 mg/kg body weight or more usually from 0.1to 25 mg/kg body weight. Single dose compositions may contain suchamounts or submultiples thereof to make up the daily dose. In general,treatment regimens according to the present invention compriseadministration to a patient in need of such treatment from about 10 mgto about 1000 mg of the compound(s) of this invention per day in singleor multiple doses.

The compounds of the formulae described herein can, for example, beadministered by injection, intravenously, intraarterially, subdermally,intraperitoneally, intramuscularly, or subcutaneously; or orally,buccally, nasally, transmucosally, topically, in an ophthalmicpreparation, or by inhalation, with a dosage ranging from about 0.5 toabout 100 mg/kg of body weight, alternatively dosages between 1 mg and1000 mg/dose, every 4 to 120 hours, or according to the requirements ofthe particular drug. The methods herein contemplate administration of aneffective amount of compound or compound composition to achieve thedesired or stated effect. Typically, the pharmaceutical compositions ofthis invention will be administered from about 1 to about 6 times perday or alternatively, as a continuous infusion. Such administration canbe used as a chronic or acute therapy. The amount of active ingredientthat may be combined with the carrier materials to produce a singledosage form will vary depending upon the host treated and the particularmode of administration. A typical preparation will contain from about 5%to about 95% active compound (w/w). Alternatively, such preparations maycontain from about 20% to about 80% active compound.

Lower or higher doses than those recited above may be required. Specificdosage and treatment regimens for any particular patient will dependupon a variety of factors, including the activity of the specificcompound employed, the age, body weight, general health status, sex,diet, time of administration, rate of excretion, drug combination, theseverity and course of the disease, condition or symptoms, the patient'sdisposition to the disease, condition or symptoms, and the judgment ofthe treating physician.

Upon improvement of a patient's condition, a maintenance dose of acompound, composition or combination of this invention may beadministered, if necessary. Subsequently, the dosage or frequency ofadministration, or both, may be reduced, as a function of the symptoms,to a level at which the improved condition is retained when the symptomshave been alleviated to the desired level. Patients may, however,require intermittent treatment on a long-term basis upon any recurrenceof disease symptoms.

The pharmaceutical compositions of this invention can be administeredorally to fish by blending said pharmaceutical compositions into fishfeed or said pharmaceutical compositions may be dissolved in water inwhich infected fish are placed, a method commonly referred to as amedicated bath. The dosage for the treatment of fish differs dependingupon the purpose of administration (prevention or cure of disease) andtype of administration, size and extent of infection of the fish to betreated. Generally, a dosage of 5-1000 mg, preferably 20-100 mg, per kgof body weight of fish may be administered per day, either at one timeor divided into several times. It will be recognized that theabove-specified dosage is only a general range which may be reduced orincreased depending upon the age, body weight, condition of disease,etc. of the fish.

The alkylating agents useful in the processes of the invention aredi-carbonates (1-3). Generally, the alkylating agents have the formula(1-3), previously described. The preferred alkylating agents are thosewherein R₁₃ is a tert-butyl, isopropyl or isobutyl group. The alkylatingreagents are prepared by reaction of a di-ol with a wide variety ofcompounds for incorporating the di-carbonate moiety. The compoundsinclude, but are not limited to, tert-butyl chloroformate, di-tert-butyldicarbonate, and 1-(tert-butoxycarbonyl)imidazole and the reaction iscarried out in the presence of an organic or an inorganic base. Thetemperature of the reaction varies from about −30° C. to about 30° C.Preferably, the alkylating reagent is di-tert-butyl dicarbonate.

An alternative method of converting the alcohol into the carbonateinvolves treating the alcohol with phosgene or triphosgene to preparethe chloroformate derivative of the di-ol. The di-chloroformatederivative is then converted into the di-carbonate by the methodsdescribed in Cotarca, L., Delogu, P., Nardelli, A., Sunijic, V,Synthesis, 1996, 553. The reaction can be carried out in a variety oforganic solvents such as dichloromethane, toluene, diethyl ether, ethylacetate and chloroform in the presence of a base. Examples of suitablebases include, but are not limited to, sodium hydroxide, potassiumhydroxide, ammonium hydroxide, sodium carbonate, potassium carbonate,ammonium carbonate, dimethylaminopyridine, pyridine, triethylamine andthe like. The temperature conditions can vary from 0° C. to about 60° C.The reaction typically takes about 3 to 5 hours to run to completion.

The cladinose moiety of macrolide (1-4) is removed either by mild acidhydrolysis or by enzymatic hydrolysis to give compounds of formula(1-5). Representative acids include dilute hydrochloric acid, sulfuricacid, perchloric acid, chloroacetic acid, dichloroacetic acid ortrifluoroacetic acid. Suitable solvents for the reaction includemethanol, ethanol, isopropanol, butanol and the like. Reaction times aretypically 0.5 to 24 hours. The reaction temperature is preferably −10°C. to 80° C.

Compounds of formula (1-4), where R₆ is an acetyl group, can beconverted into the corresponding imine as outlined in Scheme 2.Selective deprotection of the oxime is typically accomplished viaalkaline hydrolysis in protic solvents. Representative alkali compoundsinclude lithium hydroxide, sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, andthe like. Suitable solvents include, but are not limited to,tetrahydrofuran, 1,4-dioxane, 1,2-dimethoxyethane, isopropanol, ethanol,butanol and mixtures there of. The reaction temperature is preferably 0°to 35° C. and reaction time is preferably 0.5 to 8 hours.

In a like fashion, simultaneous deprotection of both the oxime and the2′ hydroxyl can be accomplished under a variety of conditions.Conditions for deprotection include, but not limited to, treating withan alcoholic solvent from room temperature to reflux, or treatment witha primary amine, such as butylamine. Alcoholic solvents preferred forthe deprotection are methanol and ethanol. A more thorough discussion ofthe procedures, reagents and conditions for removing protecting groupsis described in literature, for example, by T. W. Greene and P. G. M.Wuts in “Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis” 3^(rd) ed., John Wiley& Son, Inc, 1999.

Deoxygenation of compounds of formula (2-1) under reducing conditionsgives the macrolide imine of formula (2-2). Many reducing agents can beused to effect this transformation including, but not limited to,lithium aluminum hydride, titanium trichloride, borane, and varioussulfides such as sodium hydrogen sulfide and sodium nitrite. For a moredetailed account of oxime reduction see J. March in “Advanced OrganicChemistry” 4^(th) ed., Wiley & Son, Inc, 1992.

A particularly useful method for the reduction of oximes to thecorresponding imine uses a sulfite reducing agent, such as sodiumhydrogensulfite, under acidic conditions, typically in protic solvents.Representative acids include, but are not limited to, acetic acid,formic acid, dilute hydrochloric acid, dilute phosphoric acid, dilutesulfuric acid, and the like. Suitable protic solvents include, but arenot limited to, mixtures of water and methanol, ethanol, isopropanol, orbutanol. The reaction is typically carried out at 50° to 110° C.,preferably for between 1 and 10 hours.

Hydrolysis of the cladinose moiety can be accomplished as previouslydescribed in scheme 1 to give compounds of formula (2-3)

Alternatively compounds of formula (2-3) can be formed directly fromcompounds of formula (2-1) via treatment with TiCl₃ in alcoholicsolvents, preferably methanol or ethanol

Imines of formula (2-3) can be acylated under basic conditions using asuitable acylating agent in an aprotic solvent. Typical acylating agentsinclude, but are not limited to, acetyl chloride, acetic anhydride,benzoyl chloride, benzoic anhydride, and benzyl chloroformate.

Examples of aprotic solvents are dichloromethane, chloroform,tetrahydrofuran, N-methylpyrrolidinone, dimethylsulfoxide,N,N-dimethylformamide, N,N-dimethylacetamide, hexamethylphosphorictriamide, a mixture thereof or a mixture of one of these solvents withether, tetrahydrofuran, 1,2-dimethoxyethane, 1,2-dichloroethane,acetonitrile, ethyl acetate, acetone and the like. Aprotic solvents donot adversely affect the reaction. Preferably, the solvent is selectedfrom dichloromethane, chloroform, N,N-dimethylformamide,tetrahydrofuran, N-methylpyrrolidinone or mixtures thereof.

Typical bases include, but are not limited to, pyridine, triethylamine,diisopropyl ethylamine, N-methyl morpholine, N-methyl pyrrolidine,2,6-lutidine, 1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene. For a more extensivediscussion of acylating conditions see, for example, T. W. Greene and P.G. M. Wuts in “Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis” 3^(rd) ed., JohnWiley & Son, Inc, 1999.

Stepwise formation of the 6-11 bridged macrolides is also possible asoutlined in Scheme 3. In a similar manner as previously described, theprocedure involves reacting a compound of formula (1-4) with a suitablealkylating agent. As before, the erythromycin derivative of formula(1-4) is reacted with an alkylating agent of the formula:R₁₃—OC(O)O—CH₂[C═CHR₁₁]CH₂—O—R_(p)  (3-1)where R₁₃ is C₁-C₁₂-alkyl, and R₁₁ and R_(p) are as previously defined.

As discussed previously, most palladium (0) catalysts are expected towork in this process and the reaction is carried out in an aproticsolvent, preferably at elevated temperature, preferably at or above 50°C. The most preferred solvents are tetrahydrofuran and toluene.

The alkylating agents useful in the process of the invention are themixed silyl ether carbonates (3-1). Generally, the alkylating agentshave the formula (3-1), previously described. The preferred alkylatingagents are those wherein R₁₃ is tert-butyl, isopropyl or isobutyl andR_(p) is tert-butyl dimethyl silyl, triisopropyl silyl, tert-butyldiphenyl silyl or the like.

The alkylating reagents of formula (3-1) are prepared by reaction of adiol sequentially with a wide variety of compounds for incorporating thecarbonate moiety, followed by a wide variety of compounds forincorporating the silyl moiety. Alkylating reagents include, but notlimited to, tert-butyl chloroformate, di-tert-butyl dicarbonate, and1-(tert-butoxycarbonyl)imidazole; where as silylating reagents include,but are not limited to tert-butyl dimethyl silyl chloride, tert-butyldimethyl silyl triflate, tert-butyl dimethyl silyl cyanide, andtert-butyl dimethyl silyl imidazole. Both reactions are carried out inthe presence of an organic or an inorganic base. The temperature of thereactions vary from about −30° C. to about 30° C. Preferably, thealkylating reagent is di-tert-butyl dicarbonate and the silylatingreagent is tert-butyl dimethyl silyl chloride.

The free oxime (3-3) is prepared using essentially the same procedure asfor the deprotection of oxime (1-4) where R₆ is Ac in Scheme 2.

Compounds of formula 3-4) can be formed directly from compounds offormula (3-3) by the application of the previously described procedurefor the reduction of oximes of formula (2-1) to the corresponding imineof formula (2-2).

The protecting group (R_(p)) is then removed from the hydroxyl of thecompound of formula 3-4) using the appropriate conditions as outlined inT. W. Greene and P. G. M. Wuts in “Protective Groups in OrganicSynthesis” 3^(rd) ed., John Wiley & Son, Inc, 1999. For example, whenthe protecting group is TBS, tetra-n-butyl ammonium fluoride,hydrofluoric acid or trifluoro acetic acid may be used. Using standardconditions, the primary hydroxyl is converted to the tert-butylcarbonate, and subsequently the 11-hydroxyl group is alkylated by meansof a palladium (0) catalyst as described previously. In this waycompounds of formula (3-6) can be prepared readily.

Removal of the cladinose sugar is accomplished as previously describedin Scheme 1 to give a compound of formula (1-5).

Compounds according to the invention (5-1) may be prepared by oxidationof the secondary alcohol using Dess Martin periodinane as the oxidant.The reaction is typically run in an aprotic solvent at 0° to 25° C. Thereaction time is typically between 1 and 12 hours.

Alternatively the oxidation can be accomplished using pyridiniumchlorochromate, sulfur trioxide pyridine complex in dimethyl sulfoxide,tetra-n-propyl ammonium perruthenate and N-methyl morpholine N-oxide,Swern oxidation or the like. A more thorough discussion of the oxidationof secondary alcohols can be found in J. March in “Advanced OrganicChemistry” 4^(th) ed., Wiley & Son, Inc, 1992.

Scheme 5 illustrates another process of the invention for thepreparation of compounds according to the invention. Conversion ofalkene (6-1) into ketone (6-2) can be accomplished by exposure of thealkene to ozone followed by decomposition of the ozonide with theappropriate reducing agent, as outlined in Scheme 3. The reaction istypically carried out in an inert solvent such as, but not limited to,methanol, ethanol, ethyl acetate, glacial acetic acid, chloroform,methylene chloride or hexanes or mixtures thereof, preferably methanol,preferably at −78° to −20° C. Representative reducing agents are, forexample, triphenylphosphine, trimethyl phosphite, thiourea, and dimethylsulfide, preferably triphenylphosphine. A more thorough discussion ofozonolysis and the conditions there for can be found in J. March“Advanced Organic Chemistry” 4^(th) ed., Wiley & Son, Inc, 1992.

An alternative method for the preparation of ketone (6-2) involvesdihydroxylation of the alkene followed by diol cleavage. The glycol(6-3) is first prepared by reacting alkene (6-1) with osmium tetroxide.This reaction can be carried out with stochiometric amounts of osmiumtetroxide, or, if an oxidant such as hydrogen peroxide, tert-butylhydroperoxide, or N-methylmorpholine-N-oxide is present, with catalyticamounts of osmium tetroxide. These reactions can be carried out in avariety of solvents including: 1,4-dioxane, tetrahydrofuran,tert-butanol and diethyl ether, preferably at 0° C.

The glycol can be cleaved by a variety of reagents including, but notlimited to, periodic acid, lead tetraacetate, manganesedioxide,potassium permanganate, sodium metaperiodate, and N-iodosuccinamide.Depending on the cleavage reagent, a variety of solvents can be used.Preferably the cleavage reagent is sodium metaperiodate, the solvent ispreferably a mixture of ethanol, methanol, acetone, or 1,4-dioxane andwater and the reaction temperature is 0° to 25° C.

Scheme 6 illustrates the procedure by which compounds of formula (7-1)may be converted to compounds of formula (7-2) by treatment with ahalogenating reagent. This reagent acts to replace a hydrogen atom witha halogen atom at the C-2 position of the ketolide. Various halogenatingreagents may be suitable for this procedure.

Fluorinating reagents include, but are not limited to,N-fluorobenzenesulfonimide in the presence of base, 10% F₂ in formicacid, 3,5-dichloro-1-fluoropyridinium tetrafluoroborate,3,5-dichloro-1-fluoropyridinium triflate, (CF₃SO₂)₂NF,N-fluoro-N-methyl-p-toluenesulfonamide in the presence of base,N-fluoropyridinium triflate, N-fluoroperfluoropiperidine in the presenceof base.

Chlorinating reagents include, but are not limited to, hexachloroethanein the presence of base, CF₃CF₂CH₂ICl₂, SO₂Cl₂, SOCl₂, CF₃SO₂Cl in thepresence of base, Cl₂, NaOCl in the presence of acetic acid.

Brominating reagents include, but are not limited to, Br₂.pyridine.HBr,Br₂/acetic acid, N-bromosuccinimide in the presence of base,LDA/BrCH₂CH₂Br, or LDA/CBr₄

A suitable iodinating reagent is N-Iodosuccinimide in the presence ofbase, or I₂, for example

Suitable bases for the halogenating reactions requiring them arecompounds such as alkali metal hydrides, such as NaH and KH, or aminebases, such as LDA or triethylamine, for example. Different reagents mayrequire different type of base, but this is well known within the art.

A preferred halogenating reagent is N-fluorobenzenesulfonimide in thepresence of sodium hydride.

Suitable solvents are dimethylformamide, dimethyl sulfoxide,pyrrolidinone and the like.

It will be appreciated by one skilled in the art that compounds offormula (7-1) or (7-2) can be substituted for compounds of formula (6-1)or (6-2) in the preceding examples if the corresponding C-2 halogenatedproduct is desired.

For ease of illustration, in Scheme 7 only the 6-11 bridged moiety ofeach particular compound according to formula I will be shown, it beingunderstood that it is intended to illustrate a compound according toformula I with the specified bridged moiety. Compounds according to theinvention of the formulas (6-1) and (6-2) can be further functionalizedin a variety of ways. Scheme 7 details a procedure for the conversion ofthe ketone (6-2) into an oxime of formula (7-7). Oxime formation can beaccomplished, using the appropriate substituted hydroxylamine, undereither acidic or basic conditions in a variety of solvents.Representative acids include, but are not limited to, hydrochloric,phosphoric, sulfuric, p-toluenesulfonic, and pyridinium p-toluenesulfonate. Likewise, bases that are useful are, for example,triethylamine, pyridine, diisopropylethyl amine, 1,5-lutidine, and thelike. Appropriate solvents include, but are not limited to, methanol,ethanol, water, tetrahydrofuran, 1,2-dimethoxyethane, and ethyl acetate.Preferably the reaction is carried out in ethanol using triethylamine asthe base. Reaction temperature is generally 25° C. and reaction time is1 to 12 hours.

Ketone (6-2) can also be further utilized by conversion into the amine(7-9) via a reductive amination protocol. Thus, the ketone is treatedwith an amine in the presence of a reducing agent to obtain the productamine (7-9). The reaction can be carried out either with or withoutadded acid. Examples of acids that are commonly used include,hydrochloric, phosphoric, sulfuric, acetic, and the like. Reducingagents that effect reductive amination include, but are not limited to,hydrogen and a catalyst, zinc and hydrochloric acid, sodiumcyanoborohydride, sodium borohydride, iron petnatcarbonyl, and alcoholicpotassium hydroxide. Generally alcoholic solvents are used. Thepreferred conditions use sodium cyanoborohydride in methanol with addedacetic acid.

A still further way to functionalize ketone (6-2) is via addition ofGrignard reagents to form alcohols of formula (7-8). Scheme 8 depictsthis protocol. The requisite Grignard reagents are readily available viathe reaction of a variety of alkyl or aryl halides with magnesium understandard conditions (see B. S. Furniss, A. J. Hannaford, P. W. G. Smith,A. R. Tatchell “Vogel's Textbook of Practical Organic Chemistry” 5^(th)ed., Longman, 1989). The addition is performed in an inert solvent,generally at low temperature. Suitable solvents include, but are notlimited to tetrahydrofuran, diethylether, 1,4-dioxane,1,2-dimethoxyethane, and hexanes. Preferably the solvent istetrahydrofuran or diethylether. Preferably the reaction is run at −78°to 0° C.

In a similar way, reaction with other organometallic reagents gives riseto alcohols of type (7-8). Examples of organometallic reagents that maybe used include, but are not limited to, organo-aluminum,organo-lithium, organo-cerium, organo-zinc, organo-thallium, andorgano-boron reagents. A more thorough discussion of organometallicreagents can be found in B. S. Furniss, A. J. Hannaford, P. W. G. Smith,A. R. Tatchell “Vogel's Textbook of Practical Organic Chemistry” 5^(th)ed., Longman, 1989.

Furthermore, alcohols of type (7-14) can be prepared by reduction of thecorresponding ketone (6-2) under a variety of conditions. (see Hudlicky,M. Reductions in Organic Chemistry, Ellis Horwood Limited: Chichester,1984). The alcohols thus derived can be further modified to givecompounds of type (7-15). Processes to generate compounds of formula(7-15) include, but are not limited to: alkylation of the alcohol withan electrophile or conversion of the alcohol into a leaving group suchas a triflate, tosylate, phosponate, halide, or the like followed bydisplacement with a heteroatom nucleophile (e.g. an amine, alkoxide,sulfide or the like).

It will be appreciated by one skilled in the art, that the unsaturatedcompounds represented by compounds (6-1) and (6-2) can be reduced toform the corresponding saturated compound (see Hudlicky, M. Reductionsin Organic Chemistry, Ellis Horwood Limited: Chichester, 1984).

The glycol (7-5) can be prepared by reacting alkene (6-1) with osmiumtetroxide. This reaction can be carried out either with stochiometricamounts of osmium tetroxide, or, if a oxidant such as hydrogen peroxide,tert-butyl hydroperoxide, or N-methylmorpholine-N-oxide are present,with catalytic amounts of osmium tetroxide. These reactions can be runin a variety of solvents including: 1,4-dioxane, tetrahydrofuran,tert-butanol and diethyl ether, preferably at 0° C. The glycols thusderived can be further modified to give compounds of type (7-12) by, forinstance, selective alkylation of the primary alcohol with anelectrophile (see B. S. Furniss, A. J. Hannaford, P. W. G. Smith, A. R.Tatchell “Vogel's Textbook of Practical Organic Chemistry” 5^(th) ed.,Longman, 1989).

Epoxides of type (7-10) can be prepared by the conversion of the primaryalcohol into a leaving group such as a triflate, tosylate, phosponate,halide, or the like, followed by intramolecular nucleophillicdisplacement (see Tetrahedron Lett., 1983, 661-664). Epoxides of formula(7-10) can be further funtionalized via ring opening with a variety ofnucleophiles. Representative nucleophiles include, but are not limitedto, amines, alkoxides, sulfides, organometallic reagents and the like.Reactions can be carried out in the presence or absence of Lewis acidactivators such as silver carbonate, silver triflate, boron trifluorideetherate, aluminum trichloride and the like. (see (a) J. Med Chem.,1997, 2762-2769, (b) J. Amer. Chem. Soc., 1999, 10251-10263, (c)Tetrahedron Lett., 2000, 4229-4234)

Compounds of the invention according to formula (6-1) are also capableof further functionalization to generate compounds of the presentinvention. Alkene (6-1) can be treated with an aryl halide or aryltriflate in the presence of a palladium catalyst [Pd(0) or Pd(II)] toprovide compound (9-3): (See (a) Heck, Palladium Reagents in OrganicSynthesis, Academic Press: New York, 1985, Chapter 1; (b) Sonogashira,Comprehensive Organic Synthesis, Volume 3, Chapters 2,4; (c)Sonogashira, Synthesis 1977, 777.). Under the Heck coupling conditions,regioisomers and stereoisomers of the double bond are possible.Alternatively, compound (6-1) can undergo a cross metathesis reactionwith vinylaromatic derivatives using ruthenium catalysts to givecompounds of formula (9-2) (see (a) J. Org. Chem. 2000, 65, 2204-2207;(b) Reviews: Synlett. 1999, 2, 267; (c) Reviews: Ivin, K. J.; Mol, J. C.Olefin Metathesis and Metathesis Polymerization, 2^(nd) ed.; AcademicPress: New York, 1997; (d) J. Org. Chem. 1999, 64,4798-4816; (e) Angew.Chem., Int. Ed. Engl. 1997, 36, 2036-2056; (f) Tetrahedron 1998, 54,4413-4450).

It will be appreciated that ketones of formula (6-2) can be transformedinto alkenes of formula (9-2) and (8-1) via Wittig reaction with theappropriate phosphonium salt in the presence of a base. (see (a) Burke,Tetrahedron Lett., 1987, 4143-4146, (b) Rathke and Nowak, J. Org. Chem.,1985, 2624-2626, (c) Maryanoff and Reitz, Chem. Rev., 1989, 863-927.Furthermore, vinyl halides of formula (8-1) can be functionalized bySonogashira coupling with alkynes in the presence of a palladiumcatalyst, a copper halide and an amine base to give compounds of formula(8-2) (see (a) Sonogashira, Comprehensive Organic Synthesis, Volume 3,Chapters 2,4; (b) Sonogashira, Synthesis 1977, 777.). In a similarmanner, alkenes of formula (9-2) can be obtained from vinyl halides(8-1) via Suzuki cross coupling with organoboron reagents in thepresence of a palladium catalyst and a base, or via Stille crosscoupling with organostananes in the presence of a palladium catalyst.(see (a) Suzuki, J. Organomet. Chem. 1999, 576,147-168, (b) Stille,Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. Engl., 1986, 508-524 (c) Farina, J. Am. Chem.Soc., 1991, 9585-9595).

It will be appreciated by one skilled in the art, that the unsaturatedcompounds represented by compounds (9-2) and (8-2) can be reduced toform the corresponding saturated compound (see Hudlicky, M. Reductionsin Organic Chemistry, Ellis Horwood Limited: Chichester, 1984).

It will be appreciated that compounds of the present invention includemodification of the 3′ N of compounds of the formula (10-1). Compoundsof formula (10-2) can be made via the methods delineated in U.S. Pat.Nos. 6,034,069 and 6,387,885.
